Pellicle is looing for food and drink writers

To mark our third anniversary, we have increased our rates for writers, illustrators and photographers.

ABOUT THE COMPANY

Pellicle is a magazine devoted to exploring beer, wine, cider, food and travel and the joy found within these cultures. It aims to capture the joie de vivre in celebrating what makes modern drinks culture so vital, through insightful journalism alongside beautiful illustration and photography.

Read through its selection of recent articles/stories, categorized into: Beer, Wine, Cider, Food, Travel

There are a few other changes to the guide too, including a few updates to our T’s & C’s, and a few additions to our house style based on what we’ve learned during our first three years as a publisher. Most significantly, we’re also now open to pitches that focus on original, investigative reporting. As a publication, we definitely feel like we’ve grown in confidence, and now is the time to use that to our advantage, and occasionally publish stories of a more challenging nature.

While we intend to keep producing the joyful content we’ve built our reputation on, we also recognise the worlds of beer, wine and cider are not a joyful experience for everyone. Our hope is that by encouraging folks to investigate and report on these more challenging narratives—such as in David Jesudason’s recent piece looking at the issues disabled folks face when trying to enjoy a good pub, or brewery taproom—we will help open up the cultures of our favorite drinks to an even greater number of people.
